Re: PESO: Tractorotica
I like it. The B&W rendition really highlights the details and textures which is the interesting part of old machinery (IMHO). Good parking space, too.

Re: PESO: Tractorotica
Thanks, Bruce! The "rot-ica" play didn't occur to me, but it certainly does fit, doesn't it? :-) One of these days, I'm going to work on a collection of all the old tractors tucked back in fields and off in wooded areas around my neighborhood and use that as its title. -- Walt On 4/3/2012 8:37 AM, Bruce Walker wrote: I like it a lot Walt.
